The Saturdays

This is generic news about The Saturdays.

The Saturdays hit the USA

Sorry for the slow news recently, as most of you know I work at a school and it’s now the summer holiday so I’ve been taking some time out and watching the Olympics and spending time with friends and family. On top of that our girls have been too busy getting married so news hasn’t beeen of the most exciting, but hopefully all this will now change as the girls have flown out to the USA to start their attempt to break the US Market. Although its early days the girls haven’t done much apart from chilling at a pool and hitting some celebrity night spots – but I guess thats how it all starts.

The girls are in LA to continue to film their E! TV series which is filming them in their attempts to break the US. They will no doubt continue to record over in the USA. The exciting times at present is obviously the TV show as well as how the US will be attempted, will they release a new-single there as they do in the UK? Will their US album be the same as the new UK one – due 2013 –  or a UK -Greatest Hits with some of the new songs recorded for the new UK release. I’m sure all will be revealed over the coming months. At least whilst the girls are over in the US there will be a lot of publicity for them as they are photographed going from A to B to C.

Here are a few pictures from the last few days, more can be found in our gallery.

Styled To Rock!

You might remember a few months ago our girls where captured filming for a ‘fashion show’ well it seems the said show has now been named!

Cheryl Cole is set to make her television comeback in a new fashion show produced by Rihanna. 

The 29-year-old beauty and singer Katy Perry are among those who will guest star in new series Styled To Rock, which is billed as a search for the next big design star. 

Miss Cole’s Girls Aloud band mate Nicola Roberts is a mentor on the Sky Living show, along with British designer Henry Holland and stylist Lysa Cooper.

But Miss Cole is among the music stars to appear as a guest judge setting the aspiring hopefuls a creative task before selecting who is best. 
The Scissor Sisters, The Saturdays, Pixie Lott, Rizzle Kicks, Tinchy Stryder, Little Mix, Katy B, and Little Boots, are among the others appearing as guest judges. 

Twelve hopefuls, selected by Rihanna, will compete to win the series and get a chance to design a unique stage outfit for her London concert. 

Each guest artist will set a challenge for the contestants to create outfits they can wear at a variety of important occasions, including a multitude of live performances, shoots and high-profile events.  

A spokesman said: ‘There’s no room for mistakes – these are very real briefs – no musical artist wants a fashion disaster on their hands in front of merciless photographers and harsh fashion critics. 

‘Styled To Rock will celebrate the extraordinary talent and creativity in the British fashion scene, and search for the next generation of Britain’s most promising fashion designers.’

Rihanna is executive producer on the programme and will appear throughout the series to give advice and critique the work. 

She chose Miss Roberts, who is often seen on the front row at shows at London Fashion Week, to appear on the show because of their mutual love of clothes.

Styled to Rock will begin on Sky Living on August 14th at 9pm.

Surprise Surprise!

Update:
To answer questions we’ve had …

– There is NO age limit (fans can be of any age)
– When you contact ITV they will contact you back with ADDITIONAL information about your nomination, the procedure and if you have any questions about your nomination (or if they have any) they can contact you etc.
– The nominees (e.g. you, if you are nominating say your sister) need to explain WHY the person they are nominating deserves the surprise. Be it doing a lot of work in the community, helping others etc. This isn’t a ‘voting’ system. The decisions on who should be surprised lie with the production team at ITV. It doesn’t matter if someone gets 10000 nominations or just a single one. It’s not a popularity contest, decisions are made by the production team.
The show is still in PRE-PRODUCTION e.g. stuff has still not been finalised. Anything can change at any time.
Please note that your application will include the name, age, address and picture of the person you are nominating. So someone you barely know online cannot be nominated unless they are willing to supply you personal information, in that case its not really a ‘surprise’ is it?

If you have further questions you would like us to ask ITV please tweet or DM us at @TheSatsCoUk and we will ask on your behalf. No matter how silly (or deep) the question is, we will ask it!

Original Post:

We are offering super fans around the country these incredible once in a life time opportunities.

News Roundup – 26th July

It’s all still a bit quiet isn’t it? Here’s a round up of the news over the last few days:

Firstly it seems Alexandra Burke has let it slip that the Rochelle-Marvin wedding is due to take place over this coming weekend. More as details slip out about this little shindig! With a wedding this weekend then The Saturdays due to fly out to the USA in the middle of August will there be enough time for a new single to hit the airwaves before they fly out? Seems the timings might be a little tight but we’ll see what happens!

Mollie has been speaking to OK Magazine about Cyber-Bullies and how much they hurt. So the next time that tempting tweet or message to someone is on your finger-tips then think again before sending it!

Vanessa, Frankie and Mollie (pictured above) attended the Marie Claire September Issue Party – seems a great excuse for a party eh? Where Mollie spoke about the up-coming Rochelle Wedding to The Juice!

Una has been doing her bit for Alpro UK, in an attempt to get the UK public to start eating more plant based products (apparently) of which she did a photoshoot for them (see picture above) and she also did a couple of Twitter Q&A sessions yesterday, of which she replied to the site 🙂 – see below –

I think we all need to start packing for the beach holiday!!!

Una also appeared on BBC Radio Stoke yesterday, you can listen to the show via the BBC here

News Roundup : 4th July 2012

Happy 4th July for all our US visitors! 🙂

Here’s a round up of various news stories with The Saturdays, on the whole its quiet again, just snippets of news coming out from Una’s wedding this weekend, as Mollie attends Wimbledon with her sister and Rochelle apparently delays her honeymoon!

We start with news today that Rochelle and Marvin are to delay their honeymoon due to ‘work commitments’, Rochelle told the Daily Mirror:

“We’re going to have a honeymoon at Christmas because we have to fly straight to America to film for our reality show. Marvin and I will go away then instead as the music industry is dead around that time.”

The couple plan to spend their honeymoon in the Maldives, which is where Marvin, 27, popped the question. “It’s very special and fits in nicely!” said Rochelle, who has been dating Marvin since 2010.

I know some reports are suggesting its due to take place during the Olympics that start in a matter of weeks! The JLS tour starts late August which suggests the girls are filming their US documentary in late August/Early September so if a single is to be released before they leave they need to get a wiggle on as it only leaves 6 weeks …

Our blonde bombshell on the other hand is enjoying the single life and paid a visit to Wimbledon yesterday with her sister:

Little details have come from the weekends wedding of Una & Ben due to their exclustivity deal with a certain magazine! We know the couple had a sing along! As we know they do like a sing-along with each other 🙂 I’m sure more details will be coming soon as the magazine gets closer to hitting the shelves!

Also don’t forget the lovely Una will be on our TV screens this week! Let’s Get Gold starts on ITV this Thursday, for 3 nights. We are not sure how to get this on the site right now as its 2 shows of an hour long plus the finale on Saturday which is 90mins long! If you have any suggestions then drop us a message via twitter @TheSatsCoUk or via our Facebook page

News Roundup: 27th June 2012

It’s all a bit quiet in the world of The Saturdays isn’t it? We know the girls have been on holiday having a relaxing time – or so Frankie & Mollie have been at least! Vanessa & Rochelle have been in Africa doing their bit for Comic Relief which details are a tad sketchy right now but no doubt information will be forthcoming pretty soon we feel.

Una has obviously been looking after little baby Aoife and Internet rumours are around that she is due to get married to Ben this weekend, nothing concreate just yet so those might just be Internet whispers.

In other random news items, apparently Frankie and warned Mollie of Wayne Bridge’s Mates.

OK Magazine spoke to Mollie at the WTA event who confirmed that there is a new single ‘in a couple of months’ so we might have a little longer to wait!

Mollie also talks about her trademark pout and how it was inspired by Katie Price?! Oh dear Molls …
